Is NoVo a signal service?
No. NoVo doesn't send you 'buy this now' alerts. It maps live dealer positioning — net GEX, the gamma flip, the call/put walls, expected move — on SPY, QQQ and IWM, and lets you trade the level in one click. You read the structure and decide; NoVo shows the map and executes what you choose. It's a tool for a trader making the call, not a tipster.
Do I have to let it auto-trade?
No — and you can't, even if you wanted to. There is no auto-entry and no autonomy toggle, by design. Every entry is a decision you make and a button you click. The only thing NoVo automates is the exit — your stop and take-profit — so your discipline actually fires.
Which brokers does NoVo work with?
NoVo executes through Tradier for live trading, and supports Alpaca (paper) and tastytrade. You always trade in your own brokerage account — your money never touches NoVo.
Is my money safe? Can NoVo touch my funds?
Your money stays in your own broker account and NoVo never has access to it. You connect a trading-only API key, which brokers do not allow to withdraw or move funds. NoVo can place the trades you click and manage their exits — nothing more. Full detail on the
security page.
Can I cancel anytime?
Yes. Cancel from your portal or by email at any time; your access runs through the end of the period you've paid for and won't renew. Analyst also starts with a 7-day free trial, so you can evaluate it before paying anything. See the
refund & cancellation policy.
What's the difference between Analyst and Trader?
NoVo Analyst ($79/mo) is the intelligence — the live dealer map, the daily reads, the market data. NoVo Trader ($169/mo) includes everything in Analyst and adds the part that makes it real: one-click execution in your own broker with automated exits. Analyst is for reading the market; Trader is for trading it.
Do I need to know how to code or build bots?
No. NoVo isn't a bot builder or a scripting platform. You open the dashboard, read the dealer map that's already drawn for you, and click to trade. If you can read a chart, you can use NoVo.
What markets and timeframe does NoVo cover?
NoVo is purpose-built for 0DTE (same-day) and short-dated options scalping on the three most-traded index ETFs — SPY, QQQ and IWM. It's focused on doing one thing extremely well rather than covering every ticker.
Is NoVo financial advice?
No. NoVo is a software tool that shows market data and dealer-positioning analytics and lets you execute your own trades. It is not financial advice, not a broker-dealer, and not an investment adviser. Every trading decision — and its outcome — is yours. See the
risk disclosure.
What if I'm new to options?
NoVo assumes you know the basics of options, but we've built a lot to help: a free
glossary, the
0DTE Guide, five free
calculators, and 1,000+ articles in
The Journal. Start there, and consider paper trading first.
